Leaked Predator info

You know some one's got to say, "What the hell are you?" in their intro with Predator. Another refference to the films like Black's X Ray. This is pretty awesome.
 
When I think Mortal Kombat, I personally think fighting, violence and gameplay, and gore is the extra cherry on top.
Mortal Kombat will always be about martial arts and fighting.
Sure, gore is what separates it from Street Fighter, but that's about it.
 
The gore is a signature thing of the series though, and why most people play it.

Strip the gore from MK, and just imagine how weird the game would be.
 
They took out the blood and gore in MKvsDCU and fans hated it. I admit that I do like playing MK for the gore, but I also love the story as well. Blood and gore are apart of the gameplay since you do get points for doing fatalities. I always use fatalities on my opponents if I'm playing as a villain character.
 
Predator looks awesome, loving those animalistic noises he makes. Dat Xray is beastly too I really want to just sit down and start playing with him already.
 
Both of Predator's fatalities were such ass. Come on. What's with the fatalities in this game?
He actually looks good though. Still wouldn't buy or ever play but I love his design and stance.

His X-Ray was leaked? I've looked everywhere for it. Is it posted in this thread?
 
Yes it was posted on the top of page 4 in this thread.

By the way... Here are two Brutalities:

Time To Bleed:


If It Bleeds (at the end of the match):



Does someone has footage of the other three ones? I found nothing...
 
predator is my favorite character of all time im just tired of NRS dropping the ball on character models and fight stances.
this looks like a kid predator hes too small, predator should tower over Jax not be the same height as him. and his starting stance looks silly with his arms and legs spread out. hes kinda standing there like he dosent have a clue.

i know its a classic predator stance/trait in the movies when he opens his arms out to intimidate his opponent but theres a certain finesse to it that makes it work and they just didnt capture it here. i just wish NRS would hire better artists its not like they cant afford it, i always feel like theyre work has a amature feel to it like theyre trying but not quite nailing the little things that make the transition from OK work to OUTSTANDING work.

if you guys dig it thats fine but i want better

He's not a native character to MK.

I never said or implied that gore or Fatalities weren't, though.
Just explaining why some (including myself) don't think that horror characters fit as well as someone like Spawn, Predator or Kratos.

True, but [MENTION=16500]Kitty_55[/MENTION] wanted an explanation as to why some people feel that some guest DLC fits while others don't, and I was simply providing a reason as to why.
All of the characters in MKX are either warriors, fighters or defenders (aka protector, guard, guardian) of some sort, which is trained to physically fight.

1. Scorpion - Shirai Ryu ninja, trained in Ninjutsu
2. Sub-Zero - Lin Kuei assassin, trained in the martial art of the Lin Kuei
3. Raiden - Guardian of Earthrealm
4. Liu Kang - Shaolin warrior, trained in the martial arts ways of the White Lotus
5. Kano - Black Dragon leader, trained to fight using dirty tactics and his own fighting style
6. Sonya - Special Forces leader, trained to fight in the military.
7. Johnny Cage - Ex-movie star and has his own Special Spec-Ops, martial artist
8. Reptile - Saurian warrior trained to fight, henchman and defender of Kotal Kahn
9. Kitana - Ninja assassin, trained to fight from youth by Shao Kahn.
10. Mileena - Cloned from Kitana with her fighting abilities by Shang Tsung.
11. Kung Lao - Shaolin warrior, trained in the martial arts ways of the White Lotus
12. Jax - Ex-Special Forces member, trained to fight by the Special Forces
13. Ermac - Infused with 1,000 souls of previous dead warriors, which all knew how to fight.
14. Goro - Shokan warrior, trained to fight.
15. Kenshi - Uses Sento (the blade of his ancestors), which were all warrior kings that were trained to fight.
16. Quan Chi - Defender / guardian of the NetherRealm.
17. Shinnok - Dark lord / ruler and defender of the NetherRealm.

18. Ferra / Torr - warrior duo and guardians / enforcers of Kotal Kahn.
19. Kotal Kahn - Osh-Tek warrior and Outworld ruler.
20. D'Vorah - Kytinn warrior, first minister for Kotal Kahn and spy for Quan Chi.
21. Erron Black - Marksman, trained to fight, guardian / enforcer for Kotal Kahn.
22. Cassie Cage - Special Forces, trained to fight by her mother an father, as apparent in her variations.
23. Kung Jin - Former thief, trained to fight by the White Lotus after giving up his old life of being a thief.
24. Takeda - Shirai Ryu, trained to fight under Scorpion and the newly formed Shirai Ryu.
25. Jacqui - Special Forces, trained to fight by the Special Forces.



Kombat Pack -

Tanya -
Trained to fight in the martial art of kobu-jutsu using the tonfas.
More popularly known as Okinawan kobudō.

Predator - Hish-qu-Ten warrior and hunter.

Tremor - Ex-Lin Kuei (old timeline) and Black Dragon member.
Trained to fight likely under either the Lin Kuei or Black Dragon, in this new timeline.

Jason (MKX) - Horror movie serial killer, never trained to fight.


Freddy (MK9) - Horror movie serial killer, never trained to fight.
Kratos (MK9) - Greek Spartan warrior, trained to fight.




Now, that said, did NRS do an excellent job with Jason and Freddy in MKX and MK9 (respectively) and give them fighting moves?
YES.
I'm not taking anything away from that.

Again, I'm not trying to start a debate or fight, just stating why some (myself included) feel that horror characters with no prior fighting experience feel like a bit of an odd inclusion in MKX as DLC, as opposed to others like Predator or Kratos.

Lol Keep in mind how tall Jax is...
 
But they were when they were introduced into the game. So accept your horror icons with dignity. Because there'll be more to come.
 
My point isn't regarding what they make them into, as I previously stated that NRS gave them a great moveset and made them into fighters, but they previously weren't.
I'm just explaining why they seem like more of an oddity than Kratos or Predator, as Jason and Freddy aren't previously known for being warriors or fighters of any kind.
Vader, Yoda and Link made more sense in Soul Calibur than Freddy or Jason do in MK, since all 3 fight with weapons, which is what Soul Calibur is about.
I've long accepted guests in MK, whether there'll continue to be more horror guests in future games is yet to be seen.
Freddy and Jason are the 2 biggest icons.
Apart from that there's....... Pinhead? Michael Meyers? Meh
